Description
Nashville has a craft beverage scene that keeps growing outward from downtown, filling neighborhoods with independently owned breweries, distilleries, and taprooms that rarely make it into tourist guides. Joyride Nashville puts you in an open-air golf cart and takes you straight to four of the best ones.
Discover Nashville's craft brewery and distillery scene without renting a car or making reservations, even if you've never ventured past Broadway on a previous visit.
Your guide picks you up at Joyride Nashville's starting location and begins a two-hour loop through the city's beverage corridors. Along the way, you stop at up to four hand-picked craft venues, ranging from working distilleries where you taste Nashville-made bourbon and whiskey to neighborhood taprooms known for their rotating IPA and ale lineups. Tastings are pay-as-you-go at each stop, which means you order exactly what interests you at each venue.
Between stops, the golf cart rolls past Nashville murals, historic landmarks, and neighborhood corners that most visitors never reach by bus or on foot. Your guide fills the ride with local stories, venue history, and brewery-by-brewery context so each tasting arrives with actual background.
Taste up to four locally made craft beverages without paying a flat bar tab upfront, even if your group has a mix of beer drinkers and whiskey enthusiasts.
The tour accommodates up to seven guests per cart and runs in small groups for a conversational pace. Children ages 5 and up may ride, though tastings are reserved for guests 21 and older. Guests with children ages 5-8 should bring a booster seat.
Spend two hours exploring Nashville's craft scene without a single navigation decision, even if this is your first time exploring the city beyond the main strip.
